35 Best Wine Bars near Renton

“Excellent food and service“

“The owners are the best. Good service and great food.“

“Today was the day we finally came in and tried out Drum Roll Wine and they absolutely did not disappoint! ? We came in with our baby kitty Kimchi and had great conversations with the table next to us and bonded over our shared love of our baby kitties while sipping great wine. We also met one of the owners Sundee and she was so lovely talking to us about all the wines they have — which were all so great that we left with two bottles to take home with us. Definitely recommend and definitely coming back ?“

“I’m fairly new in the city. I’m a graduate of Northwest Wine Academy originally from Houston Texas. I went into The Wine Alley looking for a Loire Valley Chenin Blanc but Jim’s knowledge and passion led me to a phenomenal Sardinia Vermintino. Thanks Jim for making me feel welcome I will continue to do business with you! Cheers my friend!“

“I drive all the way from Federal Way to shop here. The owners are very helpful, nice people. Free wine tastings. They also have good beers on tap. Check out All Things Wine and the Stupid Wine Deals are worth the trip.“

“Absolutely FANTASTIC food and the service is top notch! Our server Veronica was FABULOUS and David the bartender made my daughter the fanciest mock tail! Treat yourself and enjoy the experience!“

“The peaceful atmosphere here combined with delicious food makes the meal memorable.“

“Our first night in Seattle and my husband found this gem! Excellent food and amazing wine. We sat at the bar with friendly patrons. The waiter made wonderful wine recommendations. The asparagus was AMAZING. Had a wonderful time and will come again and recommend to friends. A Seattle must go!“

“Lovely! Great service! Practical concept!“

“I wanted to really love Marina Mercantile. Made a Mother's Day Tea reservation. Our initial arrival was not welcoming and I was asked twice if I had a reservation. My mom, my daughter, and I waited an hour for our tray of treats. We were last to be served. People that arrived after us were served before us. We are the only minorities in the shop. It felt racist sadly or their service was extremely slow. The food was ok not the freshest tasting for a special Mother's Day event. Prepaid $200 with fixed gratitude and service charge. 🫤“

“We look forward to a return to normal so we can enjoy this place more!“

“Everything was great. Very welcoming and friendly. Doesn't seem like it's a restaurant downtown because it's so personal. Food was delicious, service excellent. They wanted us to ensure we loved our glasses of wine so they gave us taste of three different ones before ordering. We will definitely go back. “

“Vinnie’s Wine Shop is a hidden gem and one of my favorite spots to unwind on the weekend. It’s a small, cozy place with a laid-back vibe that instantly makes you feel at home. The wine selection is fantastic — they offer a wide variety from around the world, with something for every taste and budget. Whether you're a wine newbie or a seasoned enthusiast, the staff is super knowledgeable and always ready to help you find the perfect bottle or glass.

One of the best things about Vinnie’s is their Sunday oyster special — fresh oysters for only $2 each! Pair them with a crisp white wine or a sparkling rosé, and it’s honestly one of the best ways to spend a Sunday afternoon. The oysters are always fresh and beautifully served.

That said, there are a couple of things to be aware of: they automatically add a 20% gratuity to the bill without telling you, and there’s an extra $3 fee if you pay with a credit card. It makes sense in a way — it probably helps them offer the oyster deal — but it would be better if they were more upfront about it.

Still, the experience is worth it for the quality and cozy vibe.“

“I accidentally stumbled upon this place earlier this week but they were closed so I decided to come back and I'm so glad I did 😁 What a cute place! I paired a wine flight with a baguette with homemade butter, Willamette Valley Honey and flake salt which was amazing 🤩. I'll definitely be back to try more of their wines and food.“

“Went here for a night out with a big group of friends and had such a lovely time. The wine and snacks were all amazing, and the service was even better! Shout out to our server, Scarlett - she was so kind and informative, and handled our large group with ease. Will definitely be coming back!“

“I had such a great experience at JOEY Southcenter due to our lovely server McKenna. She was patient although I am extremely indecisive and she helped me make some great choices!“

“Always great food we go there often for date night😋🤫“

“I was in town for a special event, I haven't been here before and was amazed with every aspect of my experience. our server Charles was utterly fabulous. he was very knowledgeable, thoughtful and prompt. he made it feel like we were old friends. the steaks were perfectly cooked. I am 4 and 1/2 years sober, and to go out and enjoy an exquisite meal and only drink water can be a drag, but you all had an amazing selection of mocktails, my partners and I enjoyed immensely. I took the time to thank Charles for everything and got to meet Justin, letting him know how wonderful everything was. this will definitely be a regular stop anytime I visit.“

“An absolute gem in Seattle. Ben treated us like family. Extensive wine list of amazing area wines and a fantastic menu of snacks to accompany the wines. Great value and a relaxed atmosphere. A must do!!!!“

“BFV is a fun place. The wine is good, and the waiters know what they are doing. What’s not to like? 😀“

“The best macaroons I have ever tasted #bestofseattle“

“The service at this restaurant was the best I've ever had. Thank you, Christopher! The steaks were wonderfully prepared. We celebrated a college graduate and the decorated our table and hand made a custom card. Then they treated our graduate with a dessert sample. It was quite amazing!“

“This place is like a french oasis in a business park! What a find. I wasn't familiar with their story or offerings, but my husband's bell had gone off and we needed food, so we popped in here for anything. What we thought would be a quick bite, turned into a lovely early afternoon getting to know the story of this wine shop from a very accomplished and lovely person. Don't let the business park setting fool you, once you walk into Princess & Bear, you are in the south of France.“

“Cute atmosphere but the real star is their selection. There are not many places that focus on champagne and sparkling wines but they really know their stuff and mix it up. I love the Sodo area in general but this place has worked it's way in the favorites rotation.“

“I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to taste Washington wine and cozy place.

This place is bit distant from the center of Capitol Hill that it was quiet, which I enjoyed very much.

Me and my company tried flights; tasted 4 different wines. The manager explained every bottle of wine nice and in detail. Overall, it was a great experience.“

“Fantastic wine selection paired with lovely charcuterie options. Love going there to see Friday evening music, especially when Chris Stevens is playing!“

“The food here was excellent. The sign outside was deceiving. Once I realized the main hotel entrance is how one would get access to the restaurant, I got in. Selection of wine for a wine bar was a little disappointing. The quality of food was excellent. The bar tender didn't really seem to care. But then again I'm sure there's not that much repeat clientele.“

“If you are in the mood for elegant, vintage drinks with a whimsical (truly whimsical) twist - look no further - thus is your stop, for a sip - or two, or... We had the Chai Old Fashioned and the Last Word... If the devil is in the details - so are the companions of Bacchus - the REAL maraschino cherry in the Last Word and the massive ice cube in the Old Fashioned confirm how serious thus place is about its drinks reputation. Also, the Cherry and Apricot Salad gave us that so very needed connection with the local farmers' produce, it being a delightfully crispy concoction of bitter radicchio and peppery greens, smoothed by a pungent goat cheese and vanilla balsamic vinaigrette.The bread and the sharp olive oil were especially appreciated with the salad. We love gelato, but ordered the blackberry sorbet and did not regret it since it came with a solid chunk of anise biscotti - an excellent pairing for the double espresso. Our waiter, Troy, made us feel well attended, but not even once did he overdo it.“

“We loved the frozen drinks! The vibe was chill, the staff were welcoming and friendly, and the food was tasty. We will be back!“

“This is the perfect place for so many types of gatherings... Date night, birthdays, meeting the in-laws, celebrating ANYTHING, girls night, you name it! Amazing food, fabulous wine, and serious *~*~vibes~*~* (as the kids say). Love this spot!!“

“Nice people’s and great place for have fun 😎“

“Been going here since 1994 and it’s my FAVORITE place to dine in Seattle🩷“

“One of the most unique wine bars in Seattle. If you want something different this is the place to go. Phenomenal selection of Italian wines that you could probably only find here.Incredibly knowledgeable staff was incredibly friendly and stepped through every wine they served.Definitely take your wine loving friends here.“

“Surrells has a special place in our hearts. We've celebrated multiple birthdays for my daughter, and each time it's been special. Thanks for the great food and hospitality. Truly one of the best fine dining experiences Seattle has to offer.

With gratitude, Alisa and family.“

“The food in amazing! presentation and flavors. cant wait to go again!!! My old fashioned was classic in taste , however their spirits menu offers great variety“
